TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
My manager (a paragon of managerly solicitude) has decided to get
me a 21" monitor. I've read a fair amount about them, and now am
looking for recommendations.
I can't make any recommendations but I was recently looking at sales
literature on the Pivot 1700 monitor. This nifty device presents the
display in two modes: landscape (typical format) and portrait. This
17" monitor will show the whole 8 1/2 x 11 page (without scrolling) in
portrait mode, which is more than a 21" monitor will show. The cost
of this monitor is also less than that for a 21" monitor; about $1,100
(U.S. dollars). The mfg has a Web page (I don't have the URL) but you
can probably fine it by searching for Pivot (maybe Radius is the
mfg.).
